Ready for a real shocker?

There is absolutely no built in meaning to any one circumstance, event, or situation that you come across in this life.

Whatever definition you give to any given circumstance determines entirely the effect or experience you’re going to get out of said circumstance.

Positive perception/definition/”meaning” IN = Positive perception/definition/”meaning” OUT.

Negative perception/definition/”meaning” IN = Negative perception/definition/”meaning” OUT.

We’re not discussing your moral compass here (I certainly hope you don’t need a reason to not encroach another’s rights and freedoms), but rather the level of beliefs which act to inhibit us on our path to realizing our goals.

These are the circumstances we will be shedding some much needed light on.

Your perception of these circumstances, events, and situations is where you “input your say” on whether something “feels” good, bad, right, or wrong.

On some level of consciousness, you’re choosing to adopt beliefs which are literally “tinting” your perceptions in a particular direction within any given situation.

More so than perception, however, it’s these very beliefs that are controlling your relationship to your external reality…and these beliefs are completely under your conscious control to redefine.

Conflicting Definitions

Consider the example of following and acting on your highest excitement and passion, versus following a path that doesn’t excite you at all.

The path of highest excitement intuitively feels correct, but when it comes time to begin taking action toward it, you’ll come up with all sorts of excuses as to why you’re going to suffer irreversible, insurmountable pain should you ever choose to leave the treadmill of complacency.

How is it possible then, by definition, to be acting on the thing which represents your passion and excitement – yet somehow also experience something unpleasant by choosing to adopt the path of said passion?

The answer is it’s not possible.

There’s a contradictory definition somewhere in your consciousness in regards to what you currently define “excitement” and “passion” to be.

Your conscious level definitions of these words, and your genuine subconscious definitions of these words, are not in alignment.

Your subconscious beliefs are of a higher order, and thus will always manifest your reality.

The key to manifesting the life you want lies in reprogramming your subconscious mind through consciously feeding it new beliefs that you want it to accept.

Thus, what you’re presently assigning to be your belief of what constitutes “excitement” is not actually your TRUE definition of excitement.

While you might be saying “Of course this is my true definition of excitement! What are you talking about?!” What I’m saying here is that your conscious mind might know what you’re defining, but your subconscious mind has yet to adopt these new corrected beliefs.

Time, patience, and persistence is all that’s required to begin reprogramming your subconscious mind.

Your current definition shouldn’t contain a single aspect or possibility that you would potentially experience anything LESS THAN absolute excitement by taking said path.

You need to blow the dust off the control panel you’ve been conditioned to ignore since birth, and start understanding how all the buttons and knobs connect and affect the performance of the entire computer.

Two of the biggest, most important buttons to learn to use are your conscious and subconscious mind.

This concept requires no imagination at all to understand.

There are absolutely NO obstacles on the outside which you need to be concerned and worried about overcoming, because the red tape exists entirely within your own consciousness, and is thus under your complete freewill to redirect in the direction of definitions and endeavors that align with your genuine passion and excitement.

Your consciousness consists of both your conscious and subconscious mind working in tandem.

Working on just the level of conscious mind will produce results, but they won’t be as permanent, long-term, lasting, or as fulfilling as those manifested by doing subconscious self-work.

Everything is Inherently Neutral…So Clarity of Definition is Key!

When you “put in” or “apply” confusing and conflicting definitions to reality, that’s precisely how reality will behave in return toward you.

You quite literally cannot experience anything that you’re not presently allowing your subconscious definitions to define for yourself.

If it’s wealth you seek, fill your mind with thoughts of wealth.

Allow your emotional centers to feel what that wealth would feel like if you had it right now, in this present moment.

Anchor on that emotion for a moment or two, and then release it.

Doing this several times a day is the secret to transforming your subconscious beliefs.

Synchronicity and manifestation will soon follow.

You cannot experience anything that doesn’t presently exist within a definition that you’re subconsciously holding onto somewhere.

I’ve said it a few times before, but negative thoughts and emotions are the “wake up” alarms which alert you to the fact that there’s a contradictory definition hiding somewhere in the beliefs you’re unconsciously harboring.

This is literally the only thing that’s creating the strife and confusion you experience on your path to setting and achieving goals; your conscious mind thinks it sucks as manifesting change, but in reality, it’s merely failing to communicate with the subconscious portion of itself properly.

Therefore, it would be infinitely wise to begin prioritizing the task of finding out precisely where and what any and all contradictory and conflicting beliefs are within yourself so you can get the car in drive and move forward, instead of remaining in neutral, hammering on the gas, and wondering why you’re “burning out” instead of making any real progress.

The key to all personal change lies within your subconscious mind.

How to Find These Conflicting Definitions

What’s stopping you from moving in the immediate direction of your highest passion and excitement right NOW?

What are you AFRAID “might” occur if you commit to following your highest possible excitement and passion unconditionally, and without reserve or hesitation?

What’s the WORST POSSIBLE THING you can imagine that “might” happen if you commit to this path?

Your answers to these seemingly simple questions will reveal precisely where your blind spots are, because your conflicting definitions are present in your reasoning as to WHY you can’t follow your passion.

The best and most empowering part about all of this is that it doesn’t matter at all what your answers are; the entire point is to bring the conflicting definitions to the surface of your consciousness so you can consciously change them to definitions which align with who you actually are.

Once you pinpoint your limiting beliefs and definitions, you can actively work on changing them by consciously focusing and anchoring on the new definitions you wish to install.

This is a process I plan on discussing in much more depth in my upcoming premium content program.

How to Change Your Definitions and Empower Yourself to Go Beyond Them

Changing your conflicting definitions to ones which accurately align with who you actually are is as simple as the following exercise:

WHAT would I have to believe is true in order to no longer fear, worry, or doubt that the path which represents my highest excitement and passion is capable of supporting me and not letting me fail?

Think deeply on this one, and keep asking yourself this question over and over until you get to a place where you feel genuinely excited about just thinking about what excites you.

The beliefs that excite you the most while you’re “brainstorming” are precisely the beliefs you need to begin consciously integrating and replacing the conflicting and contradictory definitions with.

You will know this is accurate because as we’ve mentioned plenty of times before, excitement is the thread that leads you back to yourself.

Excitement is your true, natural, authentic vibration.

Before you were “programmed” at birth to “believe” and “define” reality in a specific way (which others reinforce and “validate” by thinking and behaving similarly), excitement was your natural frequency of vibration.

Excitement is your factory default setting, and this process is analogous to reformatting yourself so you can “remember” who you truly are underneath all of the lousy, virus-prone software you’ve been conditioned to download and operate through.

This is not self-delusion. It’s not “irresponsible” to begin changing your definitions to ones that suit you more optimally. This in itself is a limiting, conflicting belief.

What’s truly irresponsible is allowing your life to be dictated by pre-programmed unconscious software.

You’ll make no impact on this world by merely perpetuating other people’s beliefs and regurgitating unfulfilling life experiences.

Realize that all of the people you look up to who have made a difference on this planet have all strayed from the heard, and applied individuality.

These people realized the neutrality of reality, and thus the futility of trying to force change from within disempowering, self-limiting belief systems.

They succeeded because they believed in themselves.

Learning how to master this process for yourself will put you on par with just such people.

Conclusion

Everything is inherently neutral and contains no actual built in meaning.

YOU give it meaning by filtering your conscious awareness through subconscious beliefs which YOU define, and thus interpret said neutral experience in whatever light those unconscious beliefs “tint” said experience towards.

Regardless of how consciously aware you become, if you don’t work on working with, relaxing, and changing these subconscious definitions and beliefs, you will simply continue working consciously within your own realm of self-specified limitation.

It’s vital to become conscious of these beliefs so you can not only understand precisely how and why they are preventing you from experiencing unconditional excitement and happiness, but so you can consequently choose new beliefs which align with who you actually are…rather than who you’ve been “told” you need to be.

Remind yourself of how boring, luke-warm, and complacent life is when you’re running your conscious energy through definitions and beliefs that merely perpetuate more of the same.

Now, compare this same reality once you’re running your conscious energy through definitions that excite you.

It’s this very alignment with definitions that cause genuine excitement upon their very pondering that you’re supposed to be running your energy through, because said excitement is alerting you to the fact that this very level of resonance is indicative of your true, core, authentic self.

Practice, patience, and self-education are the keys to unlocking your true potential across both the conscious and subconscious domains.

Live, choose, and define your reality consciously AND subconsciously, my wonderful friends!
